Family-friendly holiday rentals in Ponsonby

Great family stay for three generations. Local beaches are close by and all amenities you could need are not far by car. Shops for essentials are within easy walking distance. Something to do in all weathers

What a great place perfect for us and even room for the next time when our 3rd daughter can stay too- beautiful waterfront excellent location with a Woolworths metro literally across the road and walking distance to viaduct restaurants- in fact we walked into town it was lovely . The carpark(s) was very handy and Kim messaged us with clear instructions and her communication was exceptional. She kindly allowed us early check in and late check out which is invaluable when you have a short stay like a long weekend. Would definitely consider coming back the next time we stay in Auckland.

Cole's place is a stylish, spacious home with great living space and a beautiful outdoor patio/garden. The location is super. A short walk to Point Chevalier beach for swimming and less than 15 mins drive to the city centre. The jacuzzi is a bonus!

We had an awesome time at the Beachside Bliss. Everything was just WOW. Ian made us feel right at home. The layout of the place is so kids friendly and safe. Loved the peace and quiet and a very clean beach. We are sure to come back soon. 101% recommended! Thank you Ian for sharing your lovely home and space with us🙏

The retreat is set in an idyllic location, surrounded by lush greenery and the calming sounds of nature. Its Mexican-inspired architecture is a feast for the eyes—think hand-painted tiles, rich wooden beams, and terracotta roofs. The lush gardens that surround the property feature native plants and flowers, providing an authentic Mexican aesthetic that truly transports you to another world. The retreat feels like a private sanctuary, far removed from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. One of the retreat's crown jewels is its stunning swimming pool, which is perfectly framed by the surrounding landscape. The pool’s waterfall is beautiful, the water is crystal-clear, making it a great place to take a dip or lounge under the sun. For an extra touch of luxury, there is also a heated spa pool that offers complete tranquility. The spa pool is perfect for a relaxing soak while enjoying the natural beauty of the area. A true gem that blends luxury, culture, and relaxation effortlessly.

This was our third stay. Very comfortable and a great location.

George is a fantastic host, going above and beyond in his communication. He thought of everything. The space is secluded and beautiful and just as described. Would definitely stay again!

What a wonderful place to stay! We were travelling with our 1 and 3 year olds and Natalie’s place was perfect. The pool and trampoline, and a little pack of fun things Natalie put together for the kids, kept us all happy and feeling very much at home. The house and yard are even nicer than the pictures, and the location is amazing. Thanks for everything.

Had an amazing stay ❤️ Would stay there again.

Ian and Ailsa were fabulous hosts and their place was good for a couple nights in Titirangi. Beautiful area and close to good restaurants and walks.

Fantastic location with direct park access. The most wonderful deck with great views- a joy in summer. Please note: this place doesn’t have an oven or a freezer and the bathroom is tiny, but we managed to make this place our home for a month during renovations. It may not be the ritz but it certainly does have character and a super accommodating host (with the friendliest, loveliest dog- Ziggy is definitely a highlight)

Great location and view! The house was spotless and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The host was also very responsive. Highly recommend staying here.

Awesome place, not often you find a home with a backyard like this one. My son loved running around, and had a great time in the spa. I appreciated the covered outdoor area, well suited for dining. The large living area was great for wheb my brother and his kids came by for dinner. Only a few minutes walk to the beach, shops, and restaurants. Would definitely stay again.

i've stayed at Brendon and Sali's places a few times now and we've become good friends. They will always be my first choice for accomodation when I come back to Auckland. The Cottage is well-located to take advantage of everything The Bays have to offer.

We had a fantastic stay, would highly recommend. We needed somewhere for children and it was great. Close to shops, including a quick walk to the mall if you need anything. Charlotte was very quick to respond and even got a new iron as we had a wedding to go to. Really amazing space and value for $$

Spent our last 3 nights in Auckland at Grants place and it was the cherry on top! Beautiful place with everything you'd want to relax, no need to go out at all once you're here. Spa and Pool were exactly what we needed to help unwind on our last few nights before our flight back home. The home itself is beautiful with all amenities you could think of, air fryer, bbq, dish washers etc.. had everything we needed and more. cooked up a storm on the bbq and even did some baking! Plenty of space for a large group with the option of an additional apartment (which we didn't need) , the beds were super comfortable with all the pillows you could ask for and then some lol. Grant was super helpful and friendly, from the time we booked, checked in and checked out he was always quick to respond and checked in regularly to see how things were and if we needed anything. 10/10 will definitely be back next time we're in Auckland!

Stayed in 10 Airbnb locations in 14 days and this was the best experience we had- right location in the best area ; very well kept and clean home; clear instructions for checkin and even allowed a late checkout. We had a wonderful experience in Auckland- thanks to our place of stay!

Sarah's place was a peaceful retreat in a beautiful neighborhood setting. It featured a spacious loft with everything I needed including a comfortable bed, cozy sitting area, large desk, and a terrific shower. Very walkable to Mount Eden and the village nearby with a variety of restaurants and shops. Sarah was easy to contact and always responsive to questions. I highly recommend Sarah's place as an excellent choice in lodging if you are visiting Auckland.

This is our second time to live here.We feel better that last time!Karin prepared milk and fruit for welcoming us when we got there.We had a really good time there ! We will miss Karin’s house and family!

Best location for Auckland CBD ! We really appreciated the convenience of the location of this spacious and airy flat. It is walkable to many places in Auckland’s CBD ! Beds are very comfy and great shower too ! We also want to thank our hosts for the quick responses and flexible check in ! Many, many thanks !

Wonderful apartment and a great location. Very clean, well maintained and equipped with everything for a lovely stay. Would go back.

Charming apartment in a great spot to see Auckland.

Helen and Jack were both delightful! My two young kids and I came in late, after a canceled flight from the US. Communicating with Helen relived my stress from traveling. We felt at home. It was lovely!

We had a great stay! The apartment is so close to coffee shops and restaurants and just a 15 minute walk to the harbor. Our kiddo loved having his own tiny room. We did have a car and made sure to get the smallest vehicle available due to the Airbnb recommendations and we are glad we did, it worked out fine though and it was nice to have a safe place to park.
